Topic: RE: Cleveland Clinic - Cigna
I have a friend that had Dr. Rosenthal do her surgery at the Cleveland Clinic last September.  If I can recall, her surgery was scheduled for 3 weeks after she was approved.  This allowed for her 2 week pre-op diet.

My friend had BCBS and had a few issues with getting approval but it was too long.

Embrace the Journey, you and in for an awesome ride!!

Hi all.  I'm Kathy from Barefoot Bay (near Sebastian on the east coast).  I'm a patient of Dr. Domkowski in Sebastian.  If anyone in the area is looking for a doctor, I highly recommend you talk to Dr. D.  He's awesome!

My PCP is in central pinellas, don't know if that is too far for you.  His name is Dr. Okeson.  I love him. He is so nice and totally on board with WLS and was happy to fill out the forms that my surgeon sent him.
